College Park High School PTSA Scholarship 2019
The goal of the College Park PTSA is to provide opportunities for all students to reach their maximum potential. We work with teachers, parents, community members, and students to ensure the needs of students are being met. To this end, we are proud to offer scholarships to deserving, graduating seniors who demonstrate both personal success and the ability and desire to share their talents with others to make a difference in their community.

Scholarships are awarded to students who embody these ideals by working within their own groups of family, friends, and community to make a difference to others. Students might achieve this by being role models to others by gaining and holding employment, by becoming involved in school activities, or by joining outside organizations whose mission is to benefit our community or society as a whole.

Please note that although a student is required to be a member of the PTSA in order to receive a PTSA scholarship, students are not required to have attended PTSA meetings or work directly with the College Park PTSA. We realize that many organizations support our ideals and encourage all students who meet the criteria to apply for the PTSA scholarship.
